What Is Lifeline?

Who Can Qualify?

The Lifeline program is a government benefit program providing free cell phone service for eligible customers. You may qualify for FREE phone service if you receive assistance from Medicaid/Medi-Cal, SNAP/CalFresh or other government programs, or if you are considered low income.
